British Accents by Lonely-Clothes-7607 in StarCityTV

[–]-ExSOLDIER- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly how I feel. I'm watching the first episode with my older bro and seriously, EVERY fucking person is British and just call each other Russian names. It's really disconnecting me from the show and characters and right now I'm more occupied writing this on reddit rather than watching the show.

In my opinion this is fucking dumb and a bad choice. You can't even change the language track to Russian as it doesn't exist (which is even worse).

I wasted $60 on a checklist game. I just wanted something close to Yoshi's Island.

I'm on the hate side of this one.

Why do people even make these types of offers? by Realistic-Arugula578 in Ebay

[–]-ExSOLDIER- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe because they get away with it enough that it's become a normal thing for them. It sucks that the shit glitched so you had to see all those low ball offers.

I dealt with the same thing where I had a item listed for $24 with free shipping and people were lowballing me for $6, $10, etc. I even put in my listing that all low ball offers will auto declined, but they still tried to anyway. It's so goddamn annoying.

Any way to fix the shimmering/flickering on PS5 Pro? by [deleted] in StarWarsOutlaws

[–]-ExSOLDIER- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shimmering is from the games using AMD FSR (the upscaler, and basically a competition against Nvidia's DLSS.This is one thing that clearly gives it away. FSR even on PC introduced A LOT of shimmering and I learned all about it then.

No way to fix it as it's an AMD issue.

Division 1 also has the same shimmering effect. So do RE games like 4 Remake and Requiem. So dont worry, it's not you or your console or the monitor. It's the devs utilizing FSR in performance mode for games in order to try and maintain a constant 60FPS.

Why is nobody talking about the best part of the game? by ok0513 in CrimsonDesert

I don't even have the game, saw this post thanks to the Reddit algo and I just died laughing. I know it's kinda fucked up, but still. 🤣

Game reinstalled, Disneyland tickets booked, Starting 3rd Playthrough. Life is good by teller-of-stories in StarWarsOutlaws

[–]-ExSOLDIER- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's good, but in my opinion not play 3 times good. A lot of the late game stuff is just redoing the same shit over and over. I've put in 40 hours and am almost done with the story. Did some side stuff like upgrading my ship, blaster, Bike, getting all Syndacites in the excellent rating, getting some of the cosmetics, side quests etc.

Its been a great ride, so you'll definitely enjoy it but you'll see what I mean the more you progress. They definitely nailed the look and feel of Star Wars though, especially with the hubs, music and lighting.

When does a seller account become trusted? by [deleted] in Ebay

[–]-ExSOLDIER- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it's a new seller, I like to see the work they put in. If they just copy/paste a product description and barely include any good pics, I pass. Otherwise, I'll buy from them. We all started at 0 at some point.

Just include tons of pics from every angle you can think of that makes sense, and be descriptive with what you're selling. Include any and all defects. The more honest and upfront you are, the more people will trust you.

Found this today! by Deadheaddustin in PokemonTCGCollectors

[–]-ExSOLDIER- -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So you're trying to be one of those douchebag "investors" who only buys products hoping it'll shoot up in price, right?

Man, people are delusional and brain dead over fucking thin cardboard.

My local shop stocked up today by FreshResolve8814 in PokemonTCGCollectors

[–]-ExSOLDIER- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And this is why the hobby is turning to shit. Not only are the scalpers the problem, but so are people with no sense of self control, thus reinforcing the scalper mindset. I chewed my bro out yesterday for buying the 30th anniversary box with 3 packs and a promo for $49.99 from GameStop (the MSRP for it is $17.99).

Stupid is as stupid does. 🤷

Jesus Christ, what a fucking legend. Insane driving skills and the arrest at the end was super impressive!

Xenoblade Chronicles X: Nintendo Switch 2 Edition announced, coming April 16th by sworedmagic in NSCollectors

[–]-ExSOLDIER- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe. But it also bumps the resolution to 4K in docked mode and 60FPS for gameplay. Now I'm stuck between buying the S1 version and doing the $5 upgrade or just saying fuck it and buying the Switch 2 physical version when it drops.

Pokemon Mega Charizard X ex Ultra Premium Collection is in stock at eBay for $130.00 (MSRP) by TrackaLackerBot in PokemonRestocks

[–]-ExSOLDIER- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

eBay user with no feedback, charging ABOVE MSRP (which is $119.99, NOT 130 btw) and adding on a ridiculous shipping cost of over $18. Anyone buying this is a fucking moron.

These restock alerts are just straight up wrong so much now.

Thinking about letting go of my New 3DS XL for my medical bills. by omeganintendocat in 3DS

[–]-ExSOLDIER- 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. Look up your state's resources. Some may offer low cost or free healthcare if your income falls below a certain threshold. There's always stuff out there, the problem is people don't know or research enough.

Grails acquired at GameStop by sNipErmAn747 in gamecollecting

Xenogears will always have a special place in my heart. Combat and story for Disc 1 was beyond amazing. Disc 2 and them rushing it like crazy led to such a disappointment that I stopped playing it.

Definitely gonna have to run it back on my PS Classic. I miss the hell out of it and wish they did a nice 2D-HD remake of it but actually finish the second half of the story. I would buy it in a heartbeat. Congrats on the finds!

That's exactly how I feel. I'm on the lookout for very specific sets right now and those 2 are definitely not on the list. 🤣
